I've had the displeasure of using a Roku TV while put up by insurance since a truck drove into our garage in January, after a couple hotel stays.

I'm sure it's a few years old but there can't be more than 8mb of RAM.

The software is so bloated and sluggish on mine

I really wish software developers were actually allowed to ship decent firmware for stuff rather than just running a gigantic bloated os to effectively just decode and display video

huh funny i thought the talent were in charge...

It blows my mind how slow mine is now. I don't even use the UI really, I only switch between ps5 and my shield tv, but that switch takes SO LONG
